Do you think it would have just been easier to use rockwool instead of the reflective stuff? I feel like that insulation choice is gonna haunt you down the road. Great episode, excited to see where this goes!

@zachariah_holub Ай бұрын

Hey thanks for joining in the journey! Oh man, I've thought a lot about this insulation stuff... There's definitely pros and cons to everything... the reflectix is nice because it's easy to install and mice and pests won't get in it and rip it out. Fiberglass and rockwool all get messed with by pests unless you cover up the bottom with wood but then that's a lot more work. I am using rockwool in the walls though

@destroy43 Ай бұрын

@@zachariah_holub the pest thing is a good point. I'll be starting a cabin build here in a month or so, so it's been something I've gone back and forth quite a bit on. I'm in the PNW, so pretty mild temps more often than not and probably worth my time to deal with the rockwool in the floors. Anyways, looking forward to your videos as I gear up to go down a similar path. We'll see if I end up documenting or not, if so, I'll reach out once that channel gets started up! Good luck and keep up the hard work!
